Evaluation of Additively Manufactured Axicon Lenses Using a THz-Camera

Additive manufacturing of lenses offers quick prototyping and characterization. This paper explains the additive manufacturing and characterization of axicon lenses using TOPAS material for Terahertz sensing applications. The beam patterns of additively manufactured axicon lens prototypes are characterized around 0.3 THz with silicon-based THz-camera to evaluate the depth of focus.
